This time, these are two great packs with scenes / presets of instruments and soundscapes. In these presets are used samples with harsh sounds of modified synth Korg Poly-800, artificial generated noises from Noise Inc and very inspiration sounds recorded from historic computing devices at The National Museum of Computing (TNMOC) at Bletchley Park.
